Hi All, I have a problem with the below code, the entity which appears inside attribute value gets position changed while using xml::dom parser. See the below example and suggest. 

use XML::DOM;
my $parser = new XML::DOM::Parser(ErrorContext => 1);
$text='put any xml text here';
my $doc;
if (! defined(eval {$doc = $parser->parse($text)})) {
  my $errs = $@;
  die("Did not parse: $errs\n");
}
$doc->normalize();
print $doc->toString;
